Tragic true story of a radium girl.
Catherine's life is set on an unexpected course when she accepts a job at Radium Dial. The dial painters forge friendships and enjoy their work but soon discover that an evil secret lurks in the magical glow-in-the-dark paint. When she and her friends start falling ill, Catherine Donohoe takes on the might of a big corporation and becomes an early pioneer of social justice in the era between world wars.
Emotive and inspiring - this book will touch you like no other as you witness the devastating impact of radium poisoning on young women's lives.
It's too late for me, but maybe it will help some of the others.
~ Catherine Wolfe Donohue
